I currently work freelance, so my availability is very flexible. I value exercise in my daily routine, and I find spending time with animals to be therapeutic. Therefore, looking after your furry friend would be the perfect addition to my schedule.

Information Rae S. would like to know about your pet

My only preference is that the dogs do not bite and that the cats do not scratch. I would also like to know if they're friendly with other animals/children, any particular ways to feed them, how often I need to take them out, any triggers to prevent, how do they feel about rain/snow, and any quirks you feel are important to share about them.

A typical day

Activities the dogs and I can do together include walks, playing fetch, and going to the dog park. With cats, we can play with interactive toys and watch the world go by from the window.

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Rae! I grew up with many dogs and trained them since they were puppies: an english labrador, a border collie chow mix, a cocker spaniel, a bernese mountain dog, a golden doodle, and a labradoodle. I also have years of experience volunteering and dog and cat animal shelters. Therefore, I can work with both calm and high- energy furry-friends. With my experience owning dogs for as long as I can remember, I was always willing to walk them around the block or on longer hikes. I'd love to host or house-sit your dog(s) or cat(s), pick up after them, play with them, walk them, and even run with them no matter their breed. For pet-sitting, drop-ins, and walking, I am available on both weekdays and weekends (weekends only for boarding), and I look forward to meeting your amazing best friend!

Rae loves dogs very much. She cares for our dogs and treats them with respect and kindness. She is a very loving and kind hearted person. I would trust her with my dog anytime.
